The Grateful


Is a sparrow grateful
for the straw in its nest?

Is a river grateful
for the shade along its banks?

Is a forest grateful
for the mountain underneath?

Does gratitude need us
to bring it into being?

    Shelter the balm. Grace
    Makes rock flow into mud that
    Takes on human form.
